Sill working on program.

A special focus of the 2009 ARTIPED is on technologies benefiting from therevolution in robotics and prosthetic devices. Thus, special sessions will beorganized on the following topics: * Therapeutic and surgery robots for minimally invasive and remote operationprocedures; * Assistive and caregiving robotics and systems; * Endoprosthetic devices, technologies and procedures for restoring functionality * Exoprosthetic devices, technologies and procedures, exoskeletons and othersystems for restoring mobility; * Prosthetic technologies for systems for coping with perception, control andcommunication impairments (hearing, speech, and vision assistive systems,brain-machine interfaces and control, neuro-robotics), * Robotics and automation in genetic/stem cell/tissue engineering, intelligentinformation processing in new devices and robots,
